I'd personally prefer '09 - already have vacation planned for '08, and
not sure if I'll be able to justify two extravagent trips.

I thought stand-alone too, but that involves a ton of planning if we
wanna do some kind of 'real' convention.  If it's just a bunch of
dev's in someone's mother's basement, then it'd be easier to do, heh.

I don't mind organizing this around another con, or whatever - but I'd
greatly prefer 2009.  Any day/time combo is good for me in '09, and
pretty well nothing will be good in '08.
